Beach Touch Football

Last Wednesday Emanuel School entered 7 teams in the annual Beach Touch Football event held at Maroubra Beach.

The three-in-attack and two-in-defense format makes this game incredibly fast with many quick turn arounds. Running in the sand really tests the students’ athleticism and agility.

The day is always a highlight in the sporting calendar, with the competition including a broad array of schools including Kambala, Freshwater, St Leos College, Marsden High, Maitland High, Randwick High and Sylvania High.

The best on the day was Heath Morleys’ team, who were narrowly edged out by Sylvania in an extremely tight match 6-7. The best players on the day were Oskar Beck and Jake Hyman.
